My wife and I are trying this out together. We've been working on diet and fitness for a few months but just started with MFP 3 days ago and are having a blast.

Anyway, are there any other couples out there doing this?

    I'm pleased to say that my husband has seen my success so he's trying it too. He says that he didn't want to start with me in case he lost weight and I didn't. LOL! but I think it's really that he's seen that I can do it and stick with it and it's really worked. I can help him find the items that we eat all the time so he can build up his library of foods and meals.

    My fiancé and I just started this two days ago. We also have been trying to work on our fitness levels for a couple of months but thought something a little more specific would help.
    Good luck to you both.

    My husband has had no choice but to change his lifestyle since I've changed mine and he's managed to drop 20lbs in the process! It's nice to have someone to support you!

    Yes, I made my husband a profile and told him to try it for a week. if he hated it he could stop. He loved it! We both slacked a little over the summer while my stepson was gone I'm back on the horse and trying to get him to join me.

    I think doing this togetheris very important b/c we plan our meals together it nice when you are in the same boast and supporting each other.

    best of luck to you.

    That's awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    I began in December and got hubby on in about Feb. we have lost about 50lbs between us. I've hit an ugly plateau but I still think this site is the best weightloss tool I have ever used.

    My hubby and I are doing this together. He's been on MFP for about a week...this is my 2nd day. We both joined a sports club a few months ago, but both slacked off the past month due to several reasons. We started back exercising this week, and are using MFP to help keep track. I believe we both can reach our goals, but doing it together every step of the way makes it even more desirable! Good luck to you both!

    I joined and found it very helpful and the wife decided to give it a try about 10 days after me. Yesterday was day 55 for me I'm am so glad I started! Although our goals are a little different (mine are more aggressive than hers) it really helps to have her working beside me with this.

    Hubby and I signed up at same time June 1st. between the two of us almost 30 lbs down! he doesnt log on every day like I do because its just not him to do it and we are both around the same cal goal so I log everything and he keeps losing! LOL I wasnt losing very easily so i amped up my exercise - but he decided he is fine with how he is doing now. So i guess we arent totally doing it together but with me 150% on board it is helping/affecting us both:) GL to you both!
